Laying fiber-glass- & carbon fiber mats

From the precise laying of glass fiber and carbon fiber mats to the production of complex aircraft and aerospace components: Laser projectors from Z-LASER are indispensable in the aerospace industry.

Possible Product Areas

Nesting textile table & material

Laser projectors visualize cutting patterns directly on the textile laying table. This allows fabric layers to be positioned efficiently and cut automatically, saving material and increasing process reliability.

Possible Product Areas

Composite Blanks for Wind Turbines

By precisely placing glass and carbon fiber mats with the help of laser projectors, productivity in rotor blade manufacturing can be increased by up to 30%. At the same time, quality is optimized and human error is minimized.

Possible Product Areas

Wind Turbine Rotor Manufacturing

Laser projectors simplify and accelerate the positioning of fiberglass mats and prepregs in wind rotor production by precisely displaying the contours of each layer. They are compatible with common 3D CAD formats, increase productivity by up to 30%, improve blade quality, minimize errors, and streamline the manufacturing process.

Possible Product Areas

CNC Processing

In the production of washbasins, kitchen countertops, or even stair steps made of marble or granite, lasers are used both for the precise positioning of vacuum suction cups and for projecting cutting edges to scale directly from complex design files.

Possible Product Areas

Worker Guidance

Laser projectors support operators during assembly by projecting screw positions, component outlines, or work steps directly onto the work surface. This reduces errors and increases process reliability.

Possible Product Areas

Labels, Tags, Stickers

Precise positioning is not only important for parts. When it comes to labels or stickers, correct placement is also critical for brand impact, user safety, and compliance. Line lasers support this process with clear and highly visible markings.

Possible Product Areas

Parcel Handling & Sorting

In combination with a camera or motion sensor, the ZLP1 laser projector enables continuous projection onto moving surfaces. Ideal for parcel sorting – but also highly useful for assembly on the production line.

Possible Product Areas

Pick-By-Light

In this proven picking application, the use of a laser projector enables significantly higher speeds, fewer errors, and clearer guidance for employees.

Possible Product Areas

Wood Frame Construction

Laser projectors such as the ZLP2 project CAD data directly onto the work surface, eliminating the need for manual measuring and marking. Workers position wooden elements according to the projections, enabling faster work and minimizing errors.

Possible Product Areas

Glued Laminated Beams & Frames

The laser projectors display the shape of the future beam, allowing the clamps to be positioned in the glue bed. This makes it possible to precisely determine the amount of lamella material required. For further processing of the finished beam on a CNC system, the projector displays the beam’s contour and aligns it with the beam’s actual position. The new position is then transmitted to the machine control system.

Possible Product Areas

CNC Woodworking Center

To optimally position the CNC vacuum suction cups, the laser projector can display both the outline of the workpiece and the contours of the suction cups. Milling edges of workpieces are projected onto the material whenever this helps to prevent damage to the suction cups by the milling tool, facilitate material positioning, or increase material utilization.
